I thought I should end the 2023-24 Colour Creations blog hop with a little fancy fold card. It is called a Cascading Display card and I haven't done one since my Christmas blog hop a couple of years ago so it is about time to do one again!

Today I have chosen to use the Notes of Nature and the Lovely & Sweet stamp sets to create my card. 

To begin with I created the base of the card in Tahitian Tide card stock.

Once you have the structure of the card which you score a "z" at each of  the ends of you base card then add another little piece of card in the shape of a "z" to those, then adhere the layers. It all helps the card fold down to go into our envelopes.

So how did I decorate the card base.

I took a piece of the Nature's Sweetness Specialty DSP and with the Stampin' Blends I coloured in the images. I used Light and Dark Tahitian Tide, Light and Dark Crumb Cake, Light and Dark Daffodil Delight, Light Lost Lagoon and Light Pretty Peacock! I used the Lovely & Sweet Dies to cut out a couple of Tahitian card flowers. The sentiment is cut up and place a little on the left and the rest on the right!

On the middle section I have used a different piece of the Nature's Sweetness Specialty DSP. 

For the inside layer of the card where you can write your greeting I have added a circle of Nature's Sweetness Specialty DSP cut out with the Everyday Details Dies which is what I used to cut out the Birthday Sentiment which is from the Notes of Nature Stamp set. I have also stamped and coloured the leaves and flowers from the Notes of Nature stamp set and cut them out with the Dies from the bundle.
